Came through while wandering around the blog world. Hope you don't mind.

Really perceptive... The illustration in the diagram is interesting. I believe, that in this world of duality, there are no only positives or negatives. Every plus has a minus attached somewhere.... and so I guess it is with a relationship... it is both an asset and a liability.

I think these questions arise in every relationship that we develop by choice. It should move on only if the happy moments out-weight the moments you question so much. Otherwise, what's the point! But if you're asking if relationships are inherently a liability, then I'd disagree!

Very interesting post, I think a relationship generally is a mix of those 2 things and of course tons of other factors, the problem if you can not define one by saying this relatioship is x, cause it is an oversimplification of the complexity involved in it

I think you have caught what another poet said: "The reddest rose unfolds" and you can never tell when. There is another wonder though: Who? Often, this can be startling. I like your poem. It is tense.
